Chapter 18: Sinkhole Exploration

Huo Xiaoshan baked the wolf skin in front of the bonfire for several days, and after drying the inside of the wolf skin, he used a wild goose knife to cut out two arm-thick holes for it, and then put it on his body, which became a simple shoulder, which could be used to resist the wind and cold during the day and spread on the ground of the snow cave at night to keep it cool.

After Huo Xiaoshan cleaned up, he set off towards the hinterland of the sinkhole, naturally followed by the little roe deer who didn't know whether he was smart or a little stupid.

The terrain inside the sinkhole is not very different from that outside the sinkhole, and there are still mountains, valleys, hills, and boundless snowy fields.

If it is accurately defined by geography, this place should belong to the basin, but Huo Xiaoshan is a child, and he doesn't think about these problems in his mind at all, he only knows that this sinkhole is very big.

There are many trees in the sinkhole.

It is a primitive underground forest, and the trees are very thick, such as red pine, white birch, oak, linden, and ash.

However, the most surprising place is that there are many birds, and flocks of pheasants can often be seen, the male pheasants drag their long and bright tail feathers, which are very conspicuous in the white mountain forest, Huo Xiaoshan unceremoniously beat down a few with a flying wing crossbow and kept them to eat.

This place is undoubtedly in a closed state for people and animals, the outside cannot come down, the inside can not go out, only the winged birds can freely haunt here, so it is not surprising that this special terrain has also created a paradise for birds.

Huo Xiaoshan has been gliding in the high and low mountains and forests in the past two days, Huo Xiaoshan because he grew up in the mountains and wilderness, and after the baptism of cold water and snow baths, the body's cold resistance is really impeccable, tired of walking, it is really to be the sky and the ground as a bed to lie down and rest for a while, only at night to find a hole in the hard snow shell, and sleep with the little roe deer, in the eyes of others this is a difficult trip, to him is really like visiting his own back garden.

Huo Xiaoshan had followed Huo Yuan into the old forest, and although he was young, he still knew some beasts. He found roe deer, wild boars, wolves, foxes, and hares.

He actually saw a sable with shiny pores, the little beast was like a purple elf with bright eyes, and he didn't know what he was eating on a horizontal tree trunk, and when he saw Huo Xiaoshan approaching, he quickly slipped down, and disappeared into the mountain forest after a while.

Huo Xiaoshan only walked out of this forest the next day, and at the edge of the forest, he also encountered a group of red deer, although he didn't know what this red deer was called, but the intricate antlers on the head of the deer still made a deep impression on him.

After Huo Xiaoshan brushed shoulders with the group of strange deer with huge horns on their heads, he accidentally found an ironthorn quinoa bush at the edge of the forest.

The thorn bush resembled a thorny hedgehog, with dark, shiny straight thorns exploding from their roots.

Huo Xiaoshan first picked a thorn strip that was only the thickness of his thumb and tried to cut it, the blade of the Yan Ling was intact, and the thorn strip only left a shallow small ditch.

Huo Xiaoshan was overjoyed, it seems that this is the iron thorn quinoa that has grown up, you must know that the wild goose feather knife is extremely fast, and it can cut a tree with a thick bowl mouth with one knife, and this thorn has only one scratch, which is not as hard as iron but not far from iron.

It took him half a day to finally cut a few wattle sticks into a dozen short strips more than a foot long and cut out the sharp ends.

He put three wattles in the flying wing crossbow and tried firing it, and he could still maintain a good direction at about fifty meters, mainly because the strength of the flying wing crossbow was much greater than that of a bow and crossbow of the same size, but when it was shot fifty meters away, it would be offset because the tail of the arrow was not glued to the feather feather and could not rotate the arrow shaft, but this more than fifty meters was enough for Huo Xiaoshan.

Passing through the shrubs and trees at the edge of the forest is a snowy field, and at the end of the snowy field is still the mountain forest.

In the summer, it should be different, maybe the snow field under your feet is grass, maybe it's a swamp, maybe it's blisters, and then there are a lot of fun things. Huo Xiaoshan thought like this, but after all, there was no one to talk to him.

So, he turned his gaze to the little roe deer, and saw that the little roe deer was still inseparable from himself.

He also thought it was strange why this little thing had fallen in love with him.

He tried it a few days ago, and he walked fast, and this little guy was also fast. This little guy is slow by himself, anyway, he looks like he is consumed by himself.

The snow field is dazzling, but it is not as interesting as that in the mountains and forests, so Huo Xiaoshan paddled his skis all the way, talking to the little roe deer without saying a word all the way, and he didn't care if the little roe deer could understand it.

"Little roe deer, is there a lot of pine seeds here, is it cooked and delicious!" He didn't care if the little roe deer would boil pine seeds.

"Little roe deer, you heartless, your mother is gone, and my mother doesn't know where to go." It doesn't matter if this little roe deer knows what this mother means.

"Little roe deer, you see how beautiful the pheasant's tail is, how beautiful it would be if you used all this pheasant feather duster." It doesn't matter that the feather duster is not all made of hard and beautiful long feathers

"Little roe deer, what are these horse-like things with antlers coming from behind us, are they your uncles and aunts?"

"Little roe deer, your uncles and aunts are running so fast! Look at the bunch of dogs behind them?! No, it's a wolf!! Little roe deer, run!! ”

A little boy rowed his skis and a small roe deer ran in front, followed by a dozen red deer, which flipped their hooves and flashed their palms, and when they jumped, they raised snow blocks on the snow, and the snow droplets flew, and at the end were more than 20 ferocious wolves.

Although Huo Xiaoshan is not afraid of wolves, he never wants to take on these twenty wolves alone, not to mention that there is a small burden now.

Before the speed of the wind, the snow field became narrow, and soon Huo Xiaoshan and the little roe deer ran into the woods at the end of the snow field.

At this time, Huo Xiaoshan noticed that the fog in this forest was thick, so strange, where did the fog come from in winter?

As Huo Xiaoshan moved forward, the fog became thicker and thicker, and Huo Xiaoshan felt that this was not fog but water vapor.

When the linden trees came out, there was a field of snow in front of them, and in the middle of the snow was a small lake.

The small lake is steaming in the bitter cold of winter, and the water vapor is thick, and the water in the center of the lake is tumbling, and it is actually a hot spring that looks extremely hot.

Presumably, the lake was the water of a hot spring, and as the water farther and farther away from the center, it finally condensed into ice and covered with snow.

And the cold air can't completely freeze this hot spring, so this strange scene of water vapor in the ice and snow is formed.

Huo Xiaoshan and the little roe deer unconsciously came to the lake, and he found a strange phenomenon, that is, the snow by the lake was as bright as the realm, and there was not the slightest trace of animals.

Huo Xiaoshan looked back, but was surprised to see a strange scene.

The red deer trembled to the center of the snow but refused to take another half step, and the wolves followed behind, jumping up to pounce on the red deer, but one by one they sat back, bowed their heads and bared their teeth, as if they were facing a great enemy.

Huo Xiaoshan felt that something was wrong, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger, he pulled out the flying wing crossbow, with a soft sound, the wings opened, and the arrow crossbow hung to the ground, seemingly casual, but in fact, the whole body was tense like a bow, and it was about to explode like thunder at any time, and make a life-and-death blow to the possible danger.
